Harriet says, “I’m helping. With my mind!”
This is why she is so sleepy all of the time, because she has to concentrate so hard to control the world.

My cats and the standing desk. A minor problem.
I’ve recently moved to a standing desk, which I accomplished by placing several reams of paper under my laptop. So far, I think I like it. I need to raise the monitor some, but otherwise, I find it quite comfie. The biggest problem comes from my chair. I have a very small office area, so

Harriet is home from the dentist
Man, I thought the cats were whiney when we took the food up last night, I had no idea how bad it would get. Harriet woke us up at 2 this morning and wouldn’t stop yowling until I locked her in the bathroom. Correction, she didn’t stop then either, she was just muffled. Of course,

Snaggle-tooth cat
The cats are whining because we’ve taken the food bowls up for the night. We don’t normally do this but Harriet is going in to the vet tomorrow to have a tooth removed. Since we got her she has had the worst breath of any cat I’ve ever known. They just get hard food but
Our cats have a water fountain. So spoiled.
Harriet has taken to drinking out of the bathroom sink. She’s so excited about it that she will sit in the sink waiting for us to come in and turn the water on. The problem is that she’s not very good at it. Frequently, she’ll just shove her head under the running water and let

When Rob and I moved into the apartment, we had a lot of boxes. I kept wishing that there was something I could do with them and, at some point, stumbled across this cardboard DIY cat scratching pad. Unlike most of the ones you see out there, this actually looked pretty stylish plus it was

Marlowe’s adventure eating string
String has long been one of Marlowe’s favorite things to chase. When Harriet came into our lives, we introduced her to string as well, which she thought was the best thing ever. Now, Harriet has this funny habit of picking her toys up and walking around the apartment with them. With the string, she’d trail

Nothing to write home about
Dad emailed me today to ask if I were dead, because I hadn’t blogged in awhile. Well, actually, he just wanted to know if I were really busy. The truth is that while I am busy, I’m working on stuff that’s not terribly interesting to write about. Shall I blog about laundry? Or, the phpBB

Cold and cats
Yesterday was the first coldish day since we moved in and I’m impressed by how quickly the apartment loses all its heat through the large, gorgeous and single-glazed windows. The desk which I am so happy to have next to a window is, in fact, quite chilly. There are storm window frames outside and some
